Chapter 178 Divorce (3)

“Mr. Knight, thank you for… looking out for me.” Alice felt truly grateful to Ethan for giving Archie thecall. Although he didn’t help much, she still appreciated his kindness. However, she couldn’t reveal herrelationship with Archie, so she couldn’t directly express her gratitude.

Meanwhile, Ethan looked at her without saying anything. Why is she thanking me for looking out forher? Isn’t that what I should do? Is this something she should thank me for?

Since she was used to his silence, she didn’t think much about it and went straight to her point. “Mr.Knight, it has been some time since Caroline moved into the Knight Residence, and she hascompletely adapted to life here.”

“Well, she has a good ability to adapt.” He agreed on this point.

“So, I think it’s time for me to let go. Even though the time isn’t…” She wanted to mention that the six-month period they had agreed upon had not elapsed, but since Caroline had already adapted, shecould leave early.

“Alice? You guys are still awake?” Rosy, who happened to come downstairs, suddenly interrupted herwords. “Well then, Alice, I bought a few things today that I think would suit you. Come upstairs with meand take a look.” She rushed up to Alice and reached out to hold her.

Rosy words and actions left Alice puzzled as she was the one who made her sign an agreement assoon as she entered the Knight Family, so she had always been cold and distant toward her. Why isshe suddenly so friendly?

She couldn’t just accept things from Rosy casually, so she politely refused. “Thank you, Rosy, but it’sokay.”

“Then, can you help me see if the things I bought for myself look good on me?” However, Rosy didn’tlet go of Alice but insisted on pulling her upstairs.

Alice felt that Rosy was Caroline’s family after all, so she couldn’t easily reject her and embarrass her.In the end, she could only stand up reluctantly.

“Alice and I are in the middle of a conversation, Mom.” Ethan was listening to Alice’s words, but beforehe could figure out the meaning behind what she was saying, he was interrupted by his mother just likethat. This made him a little dissatisfied. Now his mother even wanted to take Alice away directly, so hecouldn’t help but protest.

“I’m just borrowing your wife for a while. Do you have to be that anxious? Can’t you wait for a while?”Rosy glared at him and then pulled Alice toward the stairs.

Hearing that, Ethan rubbed his nose. I’m quite anxious, indeed. However, the way his mother calledAlice ‘your wife‘ sounded pleasant to his ears, and he couldn’t bring himself to compete with his motherfor his wife. So, the words he wanted to say remained unsaid.

Meanwhile, Alice followed Rosy upstairs, and when she made sure Ethan couldn’t see them, shedirectly asked, “Is there something you wanted to talk to me about, Mrs. Knight?”

“It’s nothing, really. I just heard you say that Caroline has adapted, and you want to let go. Are youplanning to leave?” Rosy lowered her gaze slightly to conceal her guilt.

“Yes. Since Caroline has fully adapted now, I plan to leave early.” Alice naturally wouldn’t hide this fromRosy.

“So soon?” Rosy exclaimed. After realizing her slip of composure, she quickly added, “When do youplan to leave then?”

“In the next couple of days. By then, I will sort things out with Mr. Knight.” Alice thought that since sheand Ethan were legally married and had also signed the agreement, these matters needed to beresolved.

“Why the rush? You can stay a little longer. I can see that Caroline doesn’t want to let you go either.”There was a hint of guilt in Rosy’s eyes, and her voice became slightly softer.

“I will leave sooner or later. Now that Caroline has adapted, it’s best for her if I leave now.” Alice wasaccustomed to considering everything for Caroline’s sake, so she thought through many things inadvance.

After a moment of hesitation, Rosy said softly, “You don’t need to trouble Ethan in some matters. Youcan come to me, and I will handle them directly. He is a man after all, and there might be some thingsthat he can’t handle gracefully.”

“Can

you

handle everything on my behalf, Mrs. Knight?” Alice’s eyes flickered lightly.

At her question, Rosy nodded repeatedly. “Sure. I can handle everything for you.”

“Alright, I’ll deal with the procedures with you tomorrow, and if possible, I’ll move out tomorrow as well.”Alice didn’t think too much about it. For her, it didn’t matter who handled the matter as long as it wasdone well. After all, when they got married, she wasn’t even present. Ethan had just sent Caleb tocollect the marriage certificate, so Rosy should be able to handle these things as well.

After that, Rosy specifically added, “Okay, I’ll talk to Ethan about it.”

“Okay.” Alice nodded indifferently. Although she and Ethan had signed a marriage certificate and livedtogether for several months, they weren’t actually close. Ethan was usually silent and not someone shecould have a proper conversation with. Since Rosy was willing to take care of everything, she couldn’task for more.

Rosy didn’t take Alice to her room, so there was naturally nothing to see. They had their conversationin the corridor on the third floor.

Alice had initially planned to talk to Ethan about Caroline, but now that Rosy said she would handleeverything, she simply told her the situation. After going downstairs from the third floor, she didn’t returnto the hall on the first floor but went straight back to her room on the second floor.

On the other hand, Ethan had been waiting in the hall for a long time but didn’t see his wife return.However, he thought that it might not be appropriate for him to disturb their rare mother–daughter–in-law time, so he continued waiting in the hall.

It wasn’t until Lawrence returned and Rosy came downstairs alone that he looked at his mother inconfusion. “Mom, where’s Alice?”

“She came downstairs earlier. We talked for a while, and she came down after that. Didn’t you seeher?” Rosy glanced at her son. “Could she have gone directly to her room to rest?” In fact, she knewthat Alice had gone back to her room as soon as she came downstairs. This was what she liked aboutAlice, for Alice had truly kept her word and not grown any feelings for Ethan.

Of course, for Alice to go straight to her room without going downstairs to replace Ethan not only satisfiedher but also relieved her. She was genuinely concerned about the agreement being discovered by herson. However, since Alice said that she would move out tomorrow after handling some things, thismatter would be completely resolved. She wouldn’t have to worry about it anymore in the future.
